Effective reclosure
Tesa’s Lift & Reseal, a high tech tape developed for the effective reclosure of flexible packaging, made a successful return to Packaging Innovations London recently, with a new addition to its family.
Its second public appearance in the packaging trade arena, Tesa Lift & Reseal generated interest across many different segments of the food production and retail markets, including confectionery.
Tesa’s Lift & Reseal is now in use around the world with major retailers and brand owners specifying the system on a wide range of products and pack sizes, from small, high value snacks to economy budget products.
Its newest member, Tesa Lift & Reseal ‘Fresh’, has been designed for short shelf life products and was showcased alongside the in-line dispenser, which delivers the spool wound tape directly to pack.
The in-line application works with a range of film based packaging solutions, including pouches, sacks, pillow packs, flow wraps and quad stabilo packs, giving consumers the ability to reseal the pack for the lifetime of its contents, with approximately 20 effective resealing actions.
The company is currenlty developing packaging solutions for manufacturers and retailers in the UK, Europe, Russia and Japan.
Peter Spencer, Tesa’s specialist segment manager, manufacturing, comments: “Packaging and resealing solutions are key to winning and retaining customers of convenience food products. With factors such as quality, freshness through a product’s ‘life’, accessibility and ease of use influencing the purchasing decision, it’s easy to see why innovation in this area is so important.”
